Study Notes
Paraphilias and Paraphilic Disorders

- Transvestic Disorder: Characterized by cross-dressing for sexual arousal or gratification.
- Pedophilic Disorder: Involves sexual arousal related to fantasies, urges, or behaviors involving prepubescent children aged 13 or younger.
- Object Sexuality: Sexual arousal associated with a nonliving object or specific non-genital body part.
- Exhibitionistic Disorder: Involves sexual arousal from exposing one’s genitals to an unsuspecting person.
Definitions
- Paraphilia: A condition where sexual arousal is linked to atypical stimuli, such as non-human objects, suffering, or non-consenting individuals.
- Paraphilic Disorder: A paraphilia that causes distress or impairment in functioning, or involves non-consenting partners.
Treatment Strategies
- Cognitive Strategies: These include cognitive-behavior therapy aimed at changing distorted thinking patterns linked to paraphilic behaviors.
- Not a Treatment Option: General talk therapy is often not sufficient as a standalone treatment for paraphilic disorders.
- Aversive Counterconditioning: This form of treatment involves pairing unwanted sexual arousal with negative stimuli to reduce the paraphilic behavior.
- Medications: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and anti-androgens are used to diminish sexual urges in severe paraphilic disorders.
Behavioral Strategies
- Emphasis on developing coping mechanisms and learning ways to control impulses related to paraphilic urges.
Summary of Disorders
- Frotteuristic, Transvestic, Pedophilic, Object Sexuality, and Exhibitionistic disorders are key examples showcasing the spectrum of paraphilic interests and behaviors. Each disorder reflects unique interests that can involve consent issues or focus on atypical sexual stimuli.
